The Neo | First Build

I got the purples simply because they were in stock and on sale for under $100aud, I intend to get a set of blue cags for everyday use and keep these for ride n slide nights, but until I get a good price on the blues I’ll keep using these.

I used red locktite on the truck mounts and blue on the motors and pulleys.

Check the Boa Sigma, those would look rad, wider than cags

Amazing build!

They only exist in pictures!

Awesome build, perfect for day to day use

The blue Caguamas are awesome, but keep in mind that if your area has sharp rocks or anything that cut the wheels they chunk like crazy after a while

Some final pictures with the grip design, it’s just a simple tessellation i printed out and then cut out of generic black jessup

Have you installed any sort of gasket yet?

If using it, the lid will not be flush with the top of the deck rigth ?

The lid sits high on mine anyway so I need to address that somehow.

I dont have a gasket on it yet, still working out some details, will probably just use some of that sheet gasket material and cut it by hand. The lid did sit flat but the inserts I’m using aren’t flush so it pushed it up 0.5mm, not a problem in reality.

Very nice! Do you think it is possible to ride that deck with 6-8 inch pneumatic wheels?

I think is too big. Is design for use 80-90mm wheel.

Absolutely no way whatsoever you’d even be able to get them on the trucks let alone ride it.

Not even if you would use channel/MTB trucks from Trampa or MBS (which are longer than conventional skate trucks if I am not mistaken)?

Yea this is true, but you are going to have a hard time getting g those trucks in this deck.

They have a much larger baseplate and they are set at way different angles.

You would need a custom CNC riser that has standard mounting holes then 30-35 degrees and MBS sized mounting on the bottom.

I don’t think it’s worth it

Yes, sure. I have MBS trucks and the risers from 3DServisas, see Noob question thread! 😀 ask your questions here!, so I guess that, in principle, the stuff necesseary to try is there.

Or …
you need extended base plate if so,… but and I don’t think the structure of it will appreciate it :

But your solution will work :+1:
